SideWinder

The Sidewinder kit is comprised of 2 alluminum heatsinks that were specificaly designed to make your xtreamer totaly silent yet cool
and stylish. Both sides can be fitted.

Quick Install Guide

The fitting of the Xtreamer SideWinder will remove the need for the use of the fan in the Xtreamer.
The process of upgrading the cooler is simple, but we do recommend that this quick install guide is completely read before starting.
Once completed, you should turn OFF the fan in the Fan Speed menu of the Xtreamer setup screen.

To complete the upgrade, you will require all components in this kit and a small flat bladed screwdriver, or kitchen knife (take care, always point any sharp objects away from you when in use).

Removing the SIDE plate

Firstly place your Xtreamer on a flat surface

Take a small flat bladed screwdriver or other sharp instrument, and

carefully insert it between the shiny black metal edge and the thin plastic

wall.

Once you have created a small gap, then carefully use the instrument to edge

around the rest of the metal plate.

Take off the side metal plate

Removing the SIDE plate

Remove all surplus sticky tape left on the on the flat plastic surfaces.

Once removed you will see the main chip, with a little white Thermal

Interface Material (TIM) on the surface. Please dispose of the original side

plate and the inner heat sink responsibly.

Remove the inner (silver) heat sink completely.

IMPORTANT - DO NOT insert the instrument in further than 10- 15mm or the

instrument may touch the electronics.
